摘要: Bicycles are known to be rich source of kinetic energy, some which is available for harvesting during speedy and balanced maneuvers by the user. A conventional dynamo attached rim can generate a large amount output power at an expense extra energy input from However, when applying conversion technology human powered equipments, it important minimize increase in muscular activity maximize efficiency movements. This study proposes novel methodology that utilizes lateral oscillation bicycle frame (weaving) caused user weight shifting movements order pedaling force uphill riding or quick speed-up. Based on 3D motion analysis, we designed implemented prototype electro-dynamic harvester mounted bicycle's handlebar collect side-to-side movement. The was found substantial electric 6.6 mW normal road riding. It able even has never been shown with other approaches. Moreover, weaving seems economy cycling helping efficient usage power.
